Language rather than plot motivates the story--the novel is often compared to James Joyce's \u003cem\u003eFinnegans Wake\u003c\/em\u003e--and time, characters, and death all prove unstable. The one constant is the Russian landscape, where the Volga is a more-crossable River Styx, especially when it freezes in winter. Sokolov's fiction has hugely influenced contemporary Russian writers. Now, thanks to Alexander Boguslawski's bold and superb translation, English readers can access what many consider to be his best work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Columbia University Press","offers":[{"title":"Between Dog and Wolf | Sasha Sokolov | Paperback | 9780231181471 | Used: Very Good | Fiction 1510014","offer_id":48753916084376,"sku":"1510014","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/51jQQZ4z3mL.jpg?v=1774067933","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/between-dog-and-wolf","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
